Ive had massages for over 30 years and am very familiar with the modalities. Ive had two massages here--the first with Cat and the second, yesterday with Jeni--both of whom are EXCELLENT!!! Having moved here two weeks ago from out-of-state, I was looking for a masseuse to replace my previous masseuse and decided to give Heeling Soles a try. Im extremely satisfied with the care and professionalism by staff and the feel of the environment. The depth of the massage was outstanding as Ive been receiving Thai yoga bodywork, Ashiatsu and other modalities for years. Nice to have the benefits of both at the same time. I will definitely be back. Just a not after reading some comments--in any type of massage, you MUST let the masseuse know if they are going too deep and it bothers you. If you have medical issues, please be clear to the masseuse what your concerns are and/or any injury you have. They will always be receptive or tell you that this type of massage (or any massage) may (not) be for you. Ive also been to a chiro who actually does massage therapy prior to doing adjustments. Be sure you talk to your doctor if considering any type of deep tissue-related massage. A reminder that massage therapy uses the muscles to align your body mechanics. This is pretty standard in Asia and Europe. Chinese medicine is migrating to the US and is an alternative to taking pills. With that being said, I would HIGHLY recommend that you try Heeling Soles and communicate with your masseuse. You will feel amazing and relaxed. Remember to also drink water or tea after your session.

I have never had such a great massage in my life. I have had 6 of them and I will keep coming back. This is the best type of massage for pain relief. I have fibromyalgia and these really help me make it through the week. Also I hurt my hips and it took them one session to get rid of almost all the pain. This is "feet" down the best thing that can happen to one. Cat, Jessica and Jeni are all proffesional educated, comapssionate and have great trechniques. I will always be greatful for disovering Ashiatsu.I have had many stlye of massage, in Texas and across the USA and nothing compares to this. Even the ones I had in Europe do not come close. You should come in and try it. It is the best and most relaxing massage you will ever get. You will get what you pay for plus a whole lot more. Thank you guys

First massage with Jen Alvarez was awesome! Not only did she hit all my problem areas, she managed to fit both back and front sides into a 30min period of heavenly Ashiatsu. Her pressure level was perfect -- really dug between my shoulder blades -- she made sure to ask me how I was feeling throughout; and we ended up having a nice chat as well. I look forward to developing a bodywork relationship with Jen -- already made my next appt for an hour of Ashi-Thai, which is my all-time favorite massage (used to be my 2 favorite massages but since Jeni Spring came along & rolled them into one...). Highly recommended!

That was "hands down" (hehe) the best massage I have ever had. Jessica was absolutely amazing and concentrated on my lower back pain perfectly. She knew the exact stretches to target it as well. It was such a great relief from the pain that doctors, airrosti, and my chiropractor had been struggling to relieve. The draping technique felt so secure and the little touches of the warm rice? bag on the torso and the eye cover made it perfect. I usually feel exposed when I turn to my back during a massage but that helped so much. The head and neck traction was pure bliss!!

Now I know why Jenni Spring is the Jedi Master! I have been going to yoga and getting massages at Heeling Sole for a few years. But I experienced a massage with Jeni Spring for the first time yesterday. She has Schwarzenegger toes! She did an amazing massage to the back of my neck with her toes. And the Thai stretches for the hips are incredible! Thank you Jenni. And the force is definitely with you!

Never had one of these massages and that had been too bad for me! "Ninja" was the awesome introduction to this type of massage for me. Hoping to find someone in California that can live up to Ninjas amazing healing touch. What a great treat this massage technique was during my visit to Texas. Thanks to my sis who treated me to this incredibly relaxing escape into massage nirvana. :)

Great experience!!! The only reason I would tell someone not to go would be if feet really bothers them. I had a lady named Ninja and she was so good to me!! She seemed to care more about taking care of me then the clock, which resulted in a great experience for me. I left there feeling amazing (the good pain from a productive message). I will be back!

My Chiropractor finally fixed my back about a year ago after nagging low back problems for years. I have been painfree for a year now. After the barefoot massage Im going to make an appointment with my DC again to fix the problems caused by the walking on my back last week. It did feel good during the session but the lasting results are a disaster!

Had my first Ashiatsu massage yesterday from Ninja H. She said she wasnt a real ninja, but I disagree. The massage had constant, even, firm pressure that really made a difference and felt great. This is the deep tissue massage youve been dreaming about. It was evident that Ninja loves what she does and really cares. I will be back! Thanks!

From the second you walk into the studio, you can tell this place has a great vibe. Otherworldly massage therapy work. I showed up on the wrong day for a massage appointment, and ended up taking one of the restorative yoga classes. Best mistake I ever made. I hope this place has a long life!

Lovely location - its a beach escape in the middle of the city. Ashiatsu has helped with my chronic tension more than any other massage. The massage therapists are knowledgeable and professional. The yoga room is also very calming. One of my favorite places to practice.

Jeni is THE therapist to see if youre looking for a REAL massage. She is skilled and incredibly knowledgeable. Her barefoot massage techniques are so much better than just a regular ol massage. Truly unique, relaxing, and youll feel like a noodle after your massage!

I had been looking for a new massage therapist and I have definitely found her! Thank you so much to Alyssa! She gave me such relief in my back and neck. And her rhythm was very steady with a beautiful flow. Thank you and I will definitely be returning!

Jenis massages are amazing. Deep, luxurious and smooth. The Ashi-Thai is a great way to stretch and loosen tight muscles, which makes it perfect for weekend warriors or those wanting to up their ante on stretching. Highly recommend!

My first but certainly not my last visit. I went in for pain relief from sciatica and it did provide relief. Jessica did my massage and was marvelous. The rest of the staff was friendly and engaging. Will be returning soon.
